In version 1.0 we had pretty good support for building apps for WP7, but in v1.1 we’ve taken things up a notch. Let’s look at the same HelloWP7 sample that we did previously , but see how it’s been updated to take advantage of our improved...

In Caliburn.Micro we have a series of supporting services for building presentation tiers. Among them is the EventAggregator, a service which supports in-process publish/subscribe. There are various implementations of this pattern available in other frameworks...

One of the main features of Caliburn.Micro is manifest in its ability to remove the need for boiler plate code by acting on a series of conventions. Some people love conventions and some hate them. That’s why CM’s conventions are fully customizable...

Up until now I’ve been focusing on fairly simple usage of Screens and Conductors. In this article, I want to show something a bit more sophisticated. This sample is based loosely on the ideas demonstrated by Billy Hollis in this well-known DNR TV...

Let’s look at another example: this time a simple MDI shell that uses “Screen Collections.” As you can see, once again, I have kept things pretty small and simple: Here’s a screenshot of the application when it’s running...

Previously, we discussed the theory and basic APIs for Screens and Conductors in Caliburn.Micro. Now I would like to walk through the first of several samples. This particular sample demonstrates how to set up a simple navigation-style shell using Conductor<T>...

Hopefully, previous articles have you up to speed on what Caliburn.Micro is , its basic configuration , and how to take advantage of a few of its features . In this part, I want to talk about some WP7 specifics issues. It’s unfortunate that I have...

We briefly introduced actions in Pt. 1 , but there is so much more to know. To begin our investigation, we’ll take our simple “Hello” example and see what it looks like when we explicitly create the actions rather than use conventions...

In the last part we discussed the most basic configuration for Caliburn.Micro and demonstrated a couple of simple features related to Actions and Conventions. In this part, I would like to explore the Bootstrapper class a little more. Let’s begin...

In this tutorial we will learn a few of the basics of Caliburn.Micro . Let’s start by getting the framework. Head on over to http://caliburnmicro.codeplex.com/SourceControl/list/changesets Either use Mercurial to clone the repo or click on the link...

When my “Build Your Own MVVM Framework” talk was chosen for Mix10, I put a temporary hold on this series of blog posts. I wanted to dedicate significant time to working on a sample framework and demo that would make a top notch Mix presentation...
